About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver arrived early with a mysterious crate marked only ‘Special Order’. As he unloaded it into the backroom, an old lady who lived nearby peered curiously from her window. Curious about its contents, she tiptoed closer and saw something wrapped in brown paper. Later that day, everyone in town was talking about the strange package until someone noticed it was just a giant bag of flour labeled as 'special order'. The whole neighborhood had a good laugh over it.

2. A neighborhood kid was sneaking into Edris International Market after hours, hoping for a free snack. But instead of snacks, he found an old cash register humming softly and displaying a single message: 'Welcome back, Mr. Singh.' Curious, the boy pressed some buttons, and suddenly the screen lit up with a greeting in Punjabi. Startled, he ran out, only to bump into Mr. Singh, who smiled knowingly and said, ‘Next time bring your own snacks, young man.’

3. One day, an elderly gentleman entered Edris International Market just before closing. As he reached for his shopping basket, a voice crackled over the intercom: 'Attention, customers! Due to a special shipment from our partner country, all prices are now doubled until further notice.' The old man paused for a moment, then smiled and said aloud, ‘Well, I guess I’ll just take half as much!’ He filled his basket with only half the usual items, paid double the price, and left whistling merrily. The next morning, everyone in the neighborhood received a flyer announcing a new sale: ‘Half Off Everything—Just Like Yesterday!’

4. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Edris International Market with a large box wrapped in brown paper and sealed with twine. Curious shoppers watched as he carried it inside, muttering among themselves about what could possibly be hidden within. Finally, after much anticipation, the driver emerged from the store with a big smile on his face, holding a small package addressed to nobody in particular. The crowd chuckled when they saw it—a bag of sugar so huge it looked like a tiny mountain. 'Guess someone ordered too much,' whispered one neighbor. 'Or maybe just one very sweet customer!' laughed another.
